Zard patto’n ke tasawwur se dari rahti hai,
Dil ke gulshan mei’n koi sabz pari rahti hai,
Mausame dard mei’n har perh bikhar jata hai,
Aik ummeed ki who shaakh hari rahti hai,
Waqt kid hoop tapish laakh ugaale dil per,
Aik gosha mei’n magar thorhi tari rahti hai,
Dil who pat-ther hai jo har maujk saha karta hai,
Ghum who naddi hai jo har waqt bhari rahti hai,
Fikre mahboob,ghume duniya,khayaale masjood,
Be khudi aise masael se bari rahti hai,
Toot Ta rahta hai kamre mei’n andhera “Shahid”,
Dhoop deewar ke us paar dhari rahti hai.
